Study Notes
Traffic Rules and Safety
- Everybody needs to follow traffic rules to ensure safety on the roads.
- Traffic signs are used to remind people of the rules and help prevent accidents.
Understanding Traffic Signs
- Four traffic signs are presented to understand their meanings and importance.

- They should place their creations along the track and explain why they placed them in specific locations.
Understanding Distance
- Distance can be measured by counting steps between two points
- Comparing distances helps determine which one is longer or shorter
- Simple math is used to calculate distances
Measuring Distance with Coding Express
- Coding Express Set and App are used to measure distance
- Building cards are used to build models alongside a double-ended track
- The app shows how far the train moves when each number is pressed
Vehicles and Distance
- Different vehicles are used for different distances (e.g., bikes, cars, airplanes)
- Airplanes or buses are used for longer distances
- Walking or biking is used for shorter distances
Building More Stops
- Children can build more stops and decide the distance between them
- Questions to ask:
- Which distance is the shortest/longest between the stops and how long is it?
- Can you describe the path of the train's journey?
